Venezuela

The draw agaisnt Bolivia on the opener wasn't expected for the host and seems al little hurry to take points that warrant the qualification to next round. But infront hey face the team that looks stronger in the group, with few names and a strong team Peru will be a hard test for Venezuela.

Venezuela knows Peru is a team that work well on defense and that is what Venezuela is going to take care most of it as a goal will virtually eliminate the team. MF Juan Arango has stated his confidence that the team doesn't repeat the mistakes that commit against Bolivia as with Peru does mistakes could have a higher cost. In advantage for Venezuela is the local support as also being the host is a good thing for them. The team work physical work out, work in reduce spaces and tactical work with the defense.

The absence of DF Jorge Rojas force changes on the lineup and his possible substitue is Andrés Rouga. For this match both teams are going to know the result of the match between Bolivia vs Uruguay, what could make that both seems more pressure if any one of them take the victory.

Injured:

DF Jorge Rojas

Peru

Plays with a 3-5-2 that changes to a 3-4-3, where both wings help on the defense and then has a 5-3-2. So their defense is the main priority with focus on the counterattack, where they have showed to have accuracy and good definition. Their team work overpasses the individual display, so a pass to an open player to score easily is better than trying to shoot with the GK on you.

The team arrives motivated after the unexpected victory in the opener where they crused the favorite group winner Uruguay. Expected to used the same lineup that against Utuguay, just with the possible change of MF Pedro García for MF Juan Carlos Mariño (which convert a great goal against Uruguay) and showed his quality.

FW Paolo Guerrero is showing why he is playing on Germany with Hamburgo and with Claudio Pizarro is comforming a very good offensive with need to show they are a reality and not just luck. Peru arrives with less pressure and with the scenario in their favor, with a victory would secure qualification to next round and could play relax last match against Bolivia. Even a draw is favorable for them and qualification would be near for them.

Match:

A tight match wiith Venezuela urge for points, meanwhile Peru is on the comfortable side to make their game of counterattacking and solid defending that pay dividens against Uruguay. Venezuela needs to be inteligent if they ought to get points from here. Venezuela play with Arango is their best weapon.

Prediction:

A tought match where the need of Venezuela provoke Peru gains as, they could relay on their team work and on counterattcks or plays intend to score. Venezuela still favorite and home ground in favor still left thins to wish in their draw against Bolivia, I sense the value on Peru 0 AH as their strikers posses more quality.
